Quick answer

In Winnr go to Email Users → Export, choose LeadEngine, click Export, then Download CSV. The file has 10 columns: email, name, user_name, password, smtp_host, smtp_port, imap_host, imap_port, imap_username and imap_password. Add the mailboxes in LeadEngine with its import for SMTP/IMAP accounts, then set each mailbox's daily limit there, since the file has no limit column.

LeadEngine is an AI cold-email platform that writes and sends personalized sequences. Winnr provisions and warms the mailboxes; LeadEngine runs the campaigns.

What's in the LeadEngine file

Column What Winnr puts in it
email The full email address
name The mailbox's full display name
user_name The full email address (SMTP login)
password The mailbox password
smtp_host That mailbox's mail server
smtp_port 465 (SSL)
imap_host That mailbox's mail server
imap_port 993 (SSL)
imap_username The full email address (IMAP login)
imap_password The mailbox password (same as password)

Daily limit in LeadEngine

Set the limit on each mailbox after import: 10 to 20 cold emails per mailbox per day (15 is a good default), and keep each mailbox's total, cold plus warming, at 50 or under. Warm new mailboxes for at least two weeks before they send cold.

What's next

Step-by-step

  1. 1. Select the mailboxes in Winnr

    Open Email Users and tick the mailboxes you want in LeadEngine. To take one domain, filter by it and tick the header checkbox. With nothing ticked, the export includes every mailbox in your account.

    The Export Email Users dialog in Winnr with the list of export formats
  2. 2. Export in the LeadEngine format

    Click Export, choose LeadEngine under Export Format (the search box finds it quickly), then click the Export button.

  3. 3. Download the CSV

    Click Download CSV. The link lasts 15 minutes, so export again if it has expired. The file holds passwords in plain text, so keep it private.

  4. 4. Add the mailboxes in LeadEngine

    In LeadEngine, open your email-account settings and use its import for SMTP/IMAP accounts with the Winnr file.

  5. 5. Set limits and confirm

    Set each mailbox's daily limit in LeadEngine, since the file does not carry one. Check every mailbox connected before starting a campaign.

Frequently asked questions

Why is there a password column but an imap_password column too?

password is used with user_name for SMTP, and imap_password with imap_username for IMAP. For a Winnr mailbox the two passwords are identical, as are the two usernames (the full email address).

Does LeadEngine get first and last names?

No. The name column carries the whole display name. If LeadEngine wants separate first and last names, split it there or edit the file.

What daily limit should I set in LeadEngine?

10 to 20 cold emails per mailbox per day (15 is a good default), and 50 or under in total including warming.

Should I use LeadEngine's warmup or Winnr's?

Pick one per mailbox. Winnr's built-in warming is $0.60 per mailbox per month. If you use it, keep any warmup in LeadEngine off so the mailbox is not warmed twice.

A mailbox will not connect in LeadEngine. What now?

Compare the password and imap_password in that row with the mailbox in Winnr. A password changed after you exported will not match the file. Export that mailbox again and re-add it. If a fresh export still fails, see the mailbox authentication troubleshooting guide.
